Strengths:The upper is water resillient and provided me with a little protection from the drizzle and the out-sole was very aggressive and gripped superbly- which worked well with the cushioning. Very simular to my GTS's BUT you must break these in!

Weaknesses:You can run on pavement BUT not for too long, as it feels slightly less protective on flat and hard surfaces.

Overall:A great off road shoe that you can use on the road but for a small percentage of the time.
